Legacy integration for logging DIY Floaty Hydrometer fermentation data to Brewfather.
The Floaty Hydrometer is a legacy integration. It is disabled by default and only appears in device settings when previously enabled on your account.
Floaty is treated as a legacy integration in the current beta UI. The section in Settings → Power-ups only appears when Floaty is already enabled on your account.
If the Floaty section is visible, you can:
toggle it on/off,
copy the Floaty ID,
open (configure webhook),
open this page via See instructions.
Open Settings → Power-ups.
Copy the displayed ID.
Configure your Floaty sender/app with that ID.
Start logging from Floaty.
In your batch, go to Fermentation → Devices and attach the Floaty device.
The Floaty Hydrometer is a DIY floating hydrometer project. It is considered a legacy integration in Brewfather -- the toggle in Settings > Power-ups only appears for accounts that previously had it enabled. New users will not see this option.
The Floaty sends batched readings. Brewfather takes the most recent reading from the batch and stores the following:
Gravity
Specific gravity (SG), converted from the raw value (divided by 1000)
Temperature
Temperature in Celsius
Per-device offsets can be configured by clicking the device name in your batch under Fermentation > Devices:
Gravity Offset -- Adjusts all gravity readings by a fixed amount
Temp Offset -- Adjusts all temperature readings by a fixed amount
A (configure webhook) link is available when the integration is enabled, allowing optional data forwarding to an external URL.
Never log more than once every 15 minutes. Requests logged more often than that will be ignored.
